Day 3!



Today in math we moved on to lesson two in new unit measurement. Today we looked at measuring distance. We did a small experiment where students were broken up into two groups, created a ramp using construction paper, textbooks and a ruler. Students were tasked with rolling a marble down the ramp and timing how long it would take to reach each point marked on the meter stick. In bringing the math activity out of the textbook and into the real world students were able to visually see the pattern and able to apply the same strategies they used in the activity to the homework practice questions. Students were asked to complete questions 1-5 on page 199 of the textbook an page  78 and 79 of the workbook. 





In Language today we continued to work on our spelling - due tomorrow - and practicing for our spelling test on Friday. 

In Unit Of Inquiry today we began our presentation. Check some of the photos below to see our work!

We want to ensure that our students will not be impacted by the unfolding events.

Good afternoon SJA parents Today the grade 4s began their Data Management Assignment. They conducted a survey about the religious demographic of students and teachers in grades 1-5. For this assignment, the grade 4s are being challenged to collect data, create graphs, and interpret their findings using concepts and terminology learned throughout the unit. This is a two day assignment, so the grade 4s will have the opportunity to complete their assignment tomorrow.  Today in language   the grade 4s will continued to work on their speeches. Some students have begun their third paragraph (subtopic 2).
